Gepard systems, of which Germany supplied 30 to Ukraine last year, have proved very effective at the front, especially against Russian-launched Iranian drones.. Back in December, Berlin promised Ukraine seven more cheetahs. If there was another delivery of 30 additional tanks of this type, this would significantly strengthen the Ukrainian air defense.
